Impact of duration of critical illness and level of systemic glucocorticoid availability on tissue-specific glucocorticoid receptor expression and actions: A prospective, observational, cross-sectional human and two translational mouse studies
Summary: Background: Reduced glucocorticoid-receptor (GR) expression in blood suggested that critically ill patients become glucocorticoid-resistant necessitating stress-doses of glucocorticoids. We hypothesised that critical illness evokes a tissue-specific, time-dependent expression of regulators...
